Ingredients
  • 1 pound of asparagus, woody ends chopped off
  • zest of 1 lemon
  • juice of ½ lemon
  • 1 tablespoon fresh tarragon, roughly chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. Preheat your grill to medium heat.
  2. Place asparagus in a flame proof skillet (like cast iron) and drizzle with olive oil.
  3. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
  4. When the asparagus starts to show some browning, stir/turn it and add lemon zest and tarragon.
  5. Saute asparagus until tender crisp - roughly 5-7 minutes depending on how your skillet takes up heat so keep an eye on it so it doesn't turn black or get mushy. When in doubt, steal a spear from the skillet and sample it. Cook until its tenderness meets your approval.
  6. Place in serving bowl and toss with lemon juice.
